The stock market to-day was moderately ac-
tive for the most part, but displayed consid-
cradle feverishness, and the result of the days
trading is not of Particular Importance To
either side. Coal stocks showed more anima-
ton than usual of late. Reading was the great
feature, and ON very large transactions was
firm to- strong throughout most of the day
upon an excellent exhibit of earnings. Some of
the speciaIties showed marked weakness. and
none of them made any material advance,
although number of low priced stocks dealt
in was something unusual. Another attempt
was made To influence values by manipulating
rates for money. which were bid up 10 per
cent tOwartSthe close
The opening was firm, with advances over
Saturday extending to - per cent There WAS
considerable irregularity, but the general list
was inclined To heaviness. The afternoon was
veLy dull, with little or no movement in prices
till the last hour, when "a little more life was
impaired To dealings. and the market closed
firm though quiet. Total sales, 5000 shares.
